Thelwell's previous volumes: 'Angels on Horseback', 'A Leg at Each Corner' and 'Thelwell's Riding Academy',have long established him as the supreme authority on how to survive on horseback without breaking the rules.
A glance round the first-aid tent at any horse show will give some idea of the vast number of equestrians who now follow his advice.
In response to world-wide demand he has now turned his attention to Western Riding.
If you have ever yearned to gallop a wide-eyed cayuse along the Chisholm Trail and up a creek full of mesquite or dreamed of leaping into the saddle from an upper window of the Golden Nugget Saloon and quitting town in a hail of bullets - Thelwell Goes West is for you.
Slipped under the stetson it could mean survival at the rodeo or,up the shirt-front,it might stop a bullet at twenty paces.
A 1st edn,in Thelwell's bold and comedic style and will be an important and welcome addition to the Thelwell canon.
